The fact that Mike has to explain James and Mike Mondays blows my mind. Who doesn't realize that its hard to talk to an audience and play a game? Of course the level of play will suffer if you have to think about stuff to talk about the entire time. When I play hard NES games Im lucky to get a word out in my "beat it" episodes.

I demand to know what basement Bad Luck Bootsy has been locked in, i miss that guy :(

one of the things I love about avgn the most is he doesn't just show you the game, he tries to bring you back to the time when that game was new. it's not just about the game itself, but the whole experience

I've been binge viewing cinemassacre like 20 hours this weekend 😂, hope it helps , and pat the nes punk last month the same and now just viewing regular new episode... Love the work, believe it or not, it has helped with my depression and keeping me away from hard drugs , almost lost my life ..... Thank u guys 👍🏼🇵🇷

Love all these people in the comments talking about how AVGN is "barely hanging on", or lending their expertise on how Mike comes across like a sidekick and James should get him out of Cinemassacre, but when you click on their own channels they get like 4 views per video. Good fucking work, you marks.

Love your podcasts, Pat :) Been a fan for many years now but have never really left a comment, just wanted to say thanks for all your continuous hard work, really love hearing about and learning more about my favourite hobby. Due to bad health I'm often bed ridden at the moment so watching/listening to your content really keeps me going when things are blue, so yeah I really appreciate it :) Cheers from South East England! :D

39:05 I love what you guys do at Cinemassacre! AVGN, Monster Madness, even the Location Tours, all is very entertaining. great work, you guys!! I love CUPodcast as well. I'm glad I met with "Not So Common Podcast". Enjoying both channels, they are awesome, guys. Thank you!!!!!

Mike is the Yoko Ono of Cinemassacre... BUT... it's an alternate universe and it worked. Honestly, I'm so happy that the content keeps coming, and without a hint of cynicism--Mike and James are a wonderful team. My hat is off to you, Mike. You are keeping Cinemassacre alive.

Oh man two of some of my favorite youtubers! I'm glade to see you guys working together. I am hoping to see Pat back on cinnamassacure. Love to see him come back in a nerd episode. On that point I'd love to see Mike in a nerd episode. You guys make great content keep at it.

Two great talents here in the YT gaming community. Pat and Mike have genuine passion for gaming. Ive been an avid gamer since about 1990. I enjoy retro over modern games and it took time for my mind to change on that.

Pat has just a radio voice, it's easy to listen too 👌🏼👌🏼

This was great! I was gonna just listen for 20 minutes or so and listen to the rest later, but wound up listening to the whole thing! I love Pat and Mike ❤️

Always love hearing Mike and Pat chat. It's always so interesting for some reason...

Mike is an excellent streamer. I really appreciated him playing Pilotwings. He knows how to put on a show.

You know, this was just an enjoyable podcast to listen to. You and Mike make a great podcast team. I'd love to hear you both regularly.

I really like both Mike and Pat. I'm enjoying Mike's increased presence on Cinemassacre and getting to hear more from Pat via this Podcast.

I love everything AVGN/Cinemassacre & Pat Contri. This is a great podcast. Thank you to both parties for doing it.

I like all of the content both your channels put out

Enjoyed this! I would definitely listen to more of these

Mike is an awesome guy. He is integral to the growth and continuation of cinemassacare ! Keep up the amazing work Mike. I know some people were negative towards you at the start but I love you!

Rename it "Contri-versial Podcast"

that was awesome, props to both of you. thanks for making me laugh for 2 hrs.

I mean in the first 3 months of the SNES release we did get FF4, Final Fight, Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, ActRaiser, Super R-Type, and Populous. All great games to me.

Awesome video guys!

Where's episodes 1-5

Thanks Pat.

mike does awesome playthroughs. I started a swordless quest on zelda after watching him do it

Awesome that you had Mike on your podcast! Seems like a nice guy and a good friend to James. Speaking of that have James Rolfe on!

Where are the first five episodes of the Not So Common podcast? I can only find this one and episode seven with Norm.

James and Mike should stream every episode of AVGN in a marathon like Bob Ross and Power Rangers did.

i love mike matei. i like some of the live streams he does with retro games. it's funny he mentions about how he got into gaming. i remember when i was introduced when playstation and nintendo 64 came out.

i enjoyed this a lot

great stuff!

Oh guys, love your conversation. Please make more on retro topics and drift away to modern things.

Thanks for the content Pat. All the guest you have on are perfect 👌 It would be good if James Rolfe had the time to appear in the future

SGC 2010! I remember seeing Pat and AVGN eating at the restaurant.

I met Mike few years ago. id love to meet Pat

I love seeng Mike on more videos!! Please dont be afraid to expand your channel with new faces!!

I think James should do more stuff like the Castlevania marathon. It was not about him getting angry over a shitty game but more about knowing him as a gamer, what kind of gameplay he likes but also, he talked about the more frustrating aspect of the series, so in general it felt really genuine and memorable as content for the Cinemassacre's channel. I know that Castlevania, is James's Cup of Tea, give the man a glass of Wine and he could probably talk about the serie all night long but there's probably another one that he would like to go deep into and talk about as much.

I love mikes streams. I Always stop whatever I'm doing to join.

Lyonels were in A Link to the Past too (on Death Mountain). Really nasty critters!!! :O

huge trek fan here, cant wait for the new show!!!

In the where do you see yourself in 10 years question, I want more Illustrations from Mike too.

I think Nintendo will only ship out 10 units by the time the Zeus comes out. Also, interesting to learn that Indiana Jones incident was an "in-take" Other people had suspected that was a blooper, but I had just thought that James was acting really well.

1:10:01 This conversation is a good point of difference between "reality" and "nostalgia" when it comes to console launches. I agree with both points that the must have needs to be there and good launches are very important; but it appears more recently the secondary games are more inferior (in various different ways) than they used to be for launch titles.

Congrats on 1,000,000,000 And for pat 85,000,000

hey mike they did that old music thing in the new final fantasy, you can listen to all the old music via a radio station. definitely an awesome idea other companies should implement.

tbh I may have made up about a 1/2 million of those views alone. once upon a time I'd watch the avgn playlist every night.

I'd be happy if James did even one monster madness in October.

Jesus christ Mike brought up Seanbaby and I choked on nostalgia.

Back again! Yes!

This and the Norm the Gaming Historian ones were great Retro Gaming interviews! would you interview Clint of Lazy Game Reviews? I love the new podcast...all the interviews so far have been informative

Mike and James are awesome and have entertained us all and a major part of of the lexicon of all that is nerdy, I mean cool! Great job guy's! Mike is so cool!

Great show.

EPIC!

More chat like this please!

Pat just listened to the new episode on the podcast feed. the audio on the recording needs to be turned up it is low

i like his playthroughs.

We need video like CUpodcast to make this funner to watch.

this is madness!

LP can be as hard work as you want it to be but it must be more than just gaming footage. KZfaq ads just value time more than the effort. But when you are a beginner or have a patreon funding going on you can focus a lot more on the final product you put out.

I loved Godzillathon! As well as his other vids.

Mike shouldve slid in a thank you to the irate gamer at the beginning

are you putting these on KZfaq now?

80 nes games as a kid!!?!!?? i had about 6!

a pat the nes punk video for sonic would be a good idea

Wait - Pat has another podcast?

I think they shorted the NES classic to make people think the switch would just as hard to find.

Nice move. I like it.

"When you play SMW for the first time it was like a religious experience," yeah I didn't realize gaming could be so awesome before SMW was out.

On the subject of the budget of Star Trek: Discovery: it has a huge budget, $6-7 million per episode, which is more than double the next most expensive Trek show (Enterprise at $3 million a pop). That's a budget on-par with Game of Thrones Season 4. The show is also already profitable, because the Netflix licensing deal (for everywhere but US/Canada) was equal to the entire production cost of the show. If the show fails, it won't be because of putting it on CBS All Access, and it won't be because of the lack of budget.

A billion views is not the same thing as a billion individual people. Maybe that's not what Mike meant, but it's what he said....

man I remember guardian legend coming out as a budget title and I didn't have enough to buy a standard title and I was iffie about it but l picked it up any way and on the ride home I opened it up smelling the new game smell of course and read the entire manual as always an I was like yeah this looks pretty cool got her home stuck er in and it ended up one of my favorite games.HI MIKE HI STUPID PAT

the iphone and android version of sonic 1 and 2 is 16:9

Question for Jerseyites: What is the difference between pork roll and spam?

Pat I collect Nintendo stuff but I collect for thier handhelds. I have 33 gameboy color games, 54 Gameboy Advance games, about 60 Nintendo DS. I did that because people think they are getting out of handhelds but I think No because the Switch has poor battery life to be considered a successor to 3DS.

SNES Guide hype!!!

some people dont like diarrhea fuck farts? WELL EXCUUUUUSE ME!

What other youtube personalities would you interview Pat? Would you interview with Metal Jesus Rocks?

All hail Zeus Machine!!!

Mario Kart 8 is the best selling Wii U game. The drop off is strictly based on the install base.

Building Brown Bricks

22:35 my take on the show is that more than being insult comedy it's a way for 80's and 90's kids to vindicate the frustrating things about video gaming as a hobby. Like all those lousy licensed games. -- AT

Will Pat talk more about Frank in this new podcast ??

I would gladly be an intern or do anything to help the cause. Looking for stuff dusting games n whatever.

about 7 years ago (omg...) I found a streaming channel on justin.tv, where every second video was one AVGN episode, and inbetween came shows like JonTron, Pat, Zero Punctuation and many others. from there on I started subbing them on youtube, and I found others like the Nostalgia Critic and the Cinemasnob (and old and new CA in general) - all these people became and still are a huge part of my daily life and I love them all for their work.

If you ever need a lowly visual effects peon and former video game artist as a guest.... I know a guy. ;)

Yo, on PC isn't there free software like OBS or something that allows you to record your screen and record skype chats. Seen podcasts put on video like that and it's way more enjoyable than having only this weird album cover to look at for the entire two hours.... I'm a fan of both parties here but I can't believe most your viewers watch much of these.

Wish I could donate to you guys , but im fucking broke :/

No video? :o

I dont understand the difference between breath of the wild and a new metroid. I understand mario kart because you can pick it up and drop pretty quick. Both those games seem like a bit of a journey. Regardless...I would love to see a new metroid

love the podcast!!! I only listen to this, PowerfulJRE & Your Mom's House!(: (yes it a real podcast xD)

i still remember the avgn episode where Pat came out on, that was FUNNY!

>tfw Pat says GIF as "gif"

Well... 5 years makes a difference, doesnt it?

Lot ffff'ing dough

jesus, i wonder what the add revenue is on 1bil views

But.. Breath of the Wild came out on the Wii U..

MUNKY CHEEZ !!!!!
